“Claude Monet: The Truth of Nature”
This fall, the Denver Art Museum elevates the Mile High City’s place on the global arts scene with the debut of the most comprehensive U.S. exhibition of paintings by Claude Monet in more than two decades. Featuring approximately 120 artworks spanning the French impressionist’s career, “Claude Monet: The Truth of Nature” explores his responses to the natural settings he encountered during his extensive travels. Highlights of the monumental exhibition include View from Rouelles, the first painting Monet exhibited in 1858 when he was 18 years old, and The House Seen Through the Roses, which was completed in Giverny shortly before Monet’s death; it also shines a light on the artist’s shift to painting the same subject–haystacks, poplars, water lilies–in a series. Denver is the sole U.S. city for this show; after closing on February 2, it will travel to the Museum Barberini in Potsdam, Germany. denverartmuseum.org
